YOU are assuming he's talking about overall wii consoles.
Lets look at it on a different way:
Wii owners (who else would get wii games?)purchased 8.1 games for every system sold in the month of December according to NPD data.
Or:
People(who own the wii) purchased 8.1 games for every system sold in the month of December according to NPD data.
Anyway, in before the ring of fire!!
Who are you responding to? God, you failed so hardcore. Heretic! Where are you so you can link to the forums?
Okay, sales report state that 8 (I'm rounding) games were sold as a ratio to the amount of wiis there are. Each wii owner has 8 wii games.
However, another source states only 10 million wii games were sold during that month (A more likely value), meaning 80 out of 100 wii owners bought ONE game. (And until Brawl comes out, the wii might not have a PERFECT library of games yet. Besides, Wii Sports can entertain you for so long)
The matter is you got two COMPLETELY conflict ideas. Is it a ratio of 1 to 8 or 10 to 8?
I think the point that he is trying to make here is that SOMEONE doesn't have sources right.
Your move.
Explain how this is wrong?'
I got it- it should be 'So you're left with 8 Million'
What do I win?
ALL HAIL BLACKBEARDONGUITAR! THE TRUTH, THE LIGHT, THE HERO OF DESTRUCTOID!
You going to sleep better tonight now?
Here's the Gamepro article Dale referenced. Here's the IGN article the Gamepro article referenced. THEY ALL SAY THE SAME THING.
Seriously, learn to fucking read before you go off on another spazz attack like this.
You are served continually by this waiter. For this I feel pity upon you.
Ok ... Maybe I'm missing something, but I'll give this a shot. I actually don't give a shit about NPD numbers, so I don't read articles about them, so I'm going to take your word for what these figures are.
So, Dec. Wii sales: "decembers total was what maybe 1 million tops"
Dec. Wii game sales: "So your left with 8 Million total wii games sold in the month of December"
1 million consoles / 8 million games = 8 games/console. Isn't that right? An attachment rate of 8.1?
I fail to see what the issue is. >.>
8 million games / 1 million consoles = 8 games per console.
I mean having been here so long. with no friends. and ViagralikeHardcoreness. Doesn't that give the douche the honor of audience?!
Can not a completely worthless poster be given the attention of his much greater peers!?!??!?
SHOULD NOT THE HEAVENS MOVE FOR A SAD MAN WASTING HIS LIFE PINCHING COMPLETELY IRRELLEVANT NUMBERS GET THE COMPLETE ATTENTION OF THE GREATEST COMMUNITY OF GAMERS EVER TO TREAD THE EARTH WITH THEIR WAR WEARY BATTLEBOOTS!!!
GTFO!
STFUAJPG!
WOULD YOU KINDLY!!?!!!??!!?!!?!!!????!!!!!
kthnx.
Also...
It's a clog for christ sake on the very serious internet, it's not painted on the Statue of Liberty.
You know what?
Done. Out of pure love and justice, done.
I think this has less to do with math and more to do with misreading, like Mxy said.
I'm aware of that. I don't know why I used the word math up there (even though my explanation was full of it) instead of the word conundrum.
